As a book collector I often buy old paperbacks because of the incredible cover art. As a writer I always feel a twinge of guilt at judging books by their covers, but sometimes the images are too good to pass up.
I was startled to see how many of the covers I have collected at one time or another had been created by this man. James Bama is an extraordinary artist and this finely illustrated volume is a thorough and engaging visual tribute to the man and his work.
